Lhornfan Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 16 minutes ago, regaleagle said: Well then something else is wrong......or they don't recruit enough top-tier QB's to get the right one. You cannot tell me that the QB spot has been good at Texas all these years.....it hasn't. They've let too many good ones slip thru their fingers for being TEXAS~~~. Can you name one that "slipped" through their fingers? I think this is just something people hear because Andrew Luck and RGIII went elsewhere to play. Luck was always going to Standford and RGIII followed Briles from Houston to Baylor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regaleagle Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 How about Patrick Mahomes for starters. Anybody could see he was a real talent.....regardless of his recruiting number according to the "experts". Didn't even try for him. There's been many more thru the years......thru some very dry years at that. Some right there in Austin's own backyard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regaleagle Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Gotta have a top-notch qb in today's game, for sure......at all levels now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baker Mayfield is the only one that played close out of Lake Travis High School. He was offered by New Mexico, Florida Atlantic, and Rice. He walked on at Tech and transferred to OU. He was certainly an exception to the norm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regaleagle Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Sure.......I get that. But what I don't get is why in the world Texas didn't offer these obvious outstanding throwers of the football when it was obvious at the time that's exactly what was missing in Austin.

cotton84 Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Most schools have a big burly guy escort ejected players to the locker room. Texas just had a nice looking female jogging off with the player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regaleagle Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 As you can clearly see now a qb like Burrow and even Ehlinger can carry a team. Both are good throwers and excellent at reading the defenses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
regaleagle Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Looks like Hermann may survive this season if he wins a couple of more games and gets into a decent bowl game and then the Horns win that one too. Seems like that's what it will take to keep the naysayers silent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustAFan11 Posted November 10, 2019 Author Share Posted November 10, 2019 Just finished the game. Nice win, penalties kept Texas from winning by 2-3 scores. Saw a stat during the game that had Texas ranked 93rd in penalty yards per game for the season. That has to change. Defense looked lost early on but settled in and gave up only 3 points after the 1st quarter. Ingram has a great day, he looked fresh and strong. A win you had to have and they got it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No he doesn't.........he has to have speed, read defenses well, be an excellent thrower, and being at least 6-2/210 helps. Football intelligence is also a key factor, with lots of winning games on his resume. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He needs to have a great arm and be very accurate, have speed, be a good reader of defenses, have a good qb frame(6-3/215 min.) and have lots of wins on his resume.

Looking for a bounce back and expect Texas to win convincingly. After the first quarter the Defense played like I expected with the secondary guys back. Outside of the kickoff return and a couple of missed opportunities the Horns looked good. Good to see the running game dominate. As long as OU beats Baylor, the Horns should be back in the Championship game!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the way this Texas team has looked they could go 3-0 the rest of the way or 0-3. One thing that does seem likely to happen is all 3 games be a 3-10 point victory whoever that be.

Red90fly Posted November 11, 2019 Share Posted November 11, 2019 How do you guys think the class finishes out? Collins and Dixon? Would Texas take Founjou (sp)? An Ole Miss LB commit took an OV this past weekend. Hopefully no more decommits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
